Word on the Street: Fast food

Some fast-food restaurants are seeing customers turn away for newer and healthier options.

Recent reports indicate that McDonald's sales are on a downward slide, prompting the company to look for new options to boost sales and gain back customers.

News 12 Brooklyn hit the streets to ask residents how they currently feel about fast food.

One resident says that they prefer to cook their meals at home, since they know every ingredient that goes into them. Another says they eat it up to three times a week because their children enjoy French fries.
